Liquigas had a plan today when they pushed the pace on the rolling section, looks like they planned to shell a few riders and see what happens, later Astana was the only team to really respond and take up the pace which devastated the gruppo.

 

The biggest loser was Phinney I think, although he crashed, the gruppo was not gonna wait for him that's for sure.

 

Overall, I enjoyed the stage immensely, I thought it was gonna just be a procession to the 5km mark and then a sprint, but Liquigas and Astana had other ideas and the stage ended up been really exciting.

 

I have to say Astana really look very competent at this point.
